The Cruelty to Animals Act 1966 was an Act passed by the Parliament of the United Kingdom (39 & 40 Vict., Public Acts, c. 77.) which set limits on the practice of, and instituted a licensing system for animal experimentation, amending the Cruelty to Animals Act 1849. Its long title was ''An Act to amend the Law relating to Cruelty to Animals (15 August 1876).'' The Act was replaced 110 years later by the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986. ==The Act==
The Act stipulated that researchers would be prosecuted for cruelty, unless they conformed to its provisions, which required that an experiment involving the infliction of pain upon animals to only be conducted when "''the proposed experiments are absolutely necessary for the due instruction of the persons'' (they may go onto use the instruction ) ''to save or prolong human life''". Furthermore the Act stated that should the experiment occur, the animal must be anaesthetised, used only once (though several procedures regarded as part of the same experiment were permitted), and killed as soon as the study was over.〔Kean, Hilda.
